Exploring of F-values and ISO-Values

Hello readers, I have been playing with my camera, and trying out the functions of the camera. This morning, i got curious about the F-values and ISO-values that are found when taking pictures. I have been using the full-auto mode to take pictures lately, as i really have no idea how to adjust the camera to capture a perfect picture.

And guess what, these pictures below are the findings I made while playing with F-values and ISO-values separately. Hopefully these explorations helps me in my knowledge and allows me to capture better quality pictures :)

Adjusting the F-values of the camera (increasing value)
   F 3.5
  F 4.0
   F 4.5
   F 5.0
   F 5.6
   F 6.3
   F 7.1
   F 8.0
  F 9.0
   F 10
   F 11
  F 13

I found out that the higher the F-value is, the darker the picture will get. Is there any other effects that the F-value do to the pictures as in increases?

Adjusting the ISO-values of the camera (increasing value)

   ISO 100
   ISO 200
  ISO 400
   ISO 800
   ISO 1600
  SO 3200
  ISO 6400
With increasing ISO-value, the picture captured brightens up. I assume that at a darker place, or at night time, increasing the ISO-value will allow a brighter picture to be taken?

Dear readers and experienced Photographers, please correct and educate me with any information that you have, and any mistakes or misconception that I have. Really thank you very much!

PEACE!
